The pinky

Why is it that in nearly all countries I have visited outside of
Europe and North America do men always have an extremely long pinky
fingernail? I suppose the answer is obvious...

out east (way east) i've been told that it's to symbolize wealth/status - as in... you don't do manual labor.

but i imagine that this has involved into something like - it just looks cool!

admit it, you're growing yours out.
Hey AF,

Dang I must be very wealthy cause the pinky fingernail is sword like. The unfortunate part of this absurd length is the danger you can cause to yourself and others. Serious safety hazard when shaking hands or removing items from a nasal cavity while walking the streets of Iran.

Cheers..
